Data standardization by the HUPO-PSI: how has the community benefitted?

The groundwork allowing the systematic capture of proteomics data has now largely been completed, with the design and publication of exchange formats and interchange standards by the Human Proteome Organisation Proteomics Standards Initiative (HUPO-PSI). Our focus can now shift to gathering the ever-increasing amounts of generated data, and finding novel ways to catalog and present it so that a deeper understanding of basic science, health, and disease can be gained by scientists mining these increasingly rich resources.
